This is the "ground shot", up close details of Genesis chapter 3, where we see unfold the incredible "word" and "work" of God coming to rescue man & wife. We have a Savior who saves ('cuz that's what Saviors do!), the save-eze, and the beautiful picture of what it really means that GOD.....SAVES.....Sinners.....like me...and like you.....WOW!
Here's the J.I.Packer quote: (and
full link)
"...
God saves sinners.
God - the Triune Jehovah, Father, Son and Spirit; three Persons working together in sovereign wisdom, power and love to achieve the salvation of a chosen people, the Father electing, the Son fulfilling the Father's will by redeeming, the Spirit executing the purpose of Father and Son by renewing.
Saves - does everything, first to last, that is involved in bringing man from death in sin to life in glory: plans, achieves and communicates redemption, calls and keeps, justifies, sanctifies, glorifies.
Sinners - men as God finds them, guilty, vile, helpless, powerless, blind, unable to lift a finger to do God's will or better their spiritual lot. God saves sinners - and the force of this confession may not be weakened by disrupting the unity of the work of the Trinity, or by dividing the achievement of salvation between God and man and making the decisive part man's own, or by soft-pedaling the sinner's inability as to allow him to share the praise of his salvation with his Savior."
